英语四级作文真题及参考范文
【题目1】
１．许多人喜欢在除夕夜观看春节晚会
２．但有些人提出取消春节晚会．
３．我的看法．
【参考范文】
The approach of the Chinese Lunar New Year poses a national issue concerning the necessity of holding the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Its established status is being challenged by a growing number of people, especially by younger generations. It is increasingly difficult to cater for all tastes.
Some individuals deem that it should be canceled or replaced by other programs. These young people focus their attention on other forms of celebration instead of immersing themselves in TV. Despite that, the majority of mid-aged people and senior citizens uphold the importance of the traditional performance. The most striking feature of this gala is its traditionally close link with ordinary people's lives. Most of people view this gala as an annual staple on the traditional Chinese Spring Festival Eve. They all have a restless night and glue their eyes on the television.
I am not supportive of the view that the grand gala should be abandoned. Undoubtedly, it plays a vital role in the celebration of Chinese New Year. To increase its appeal and meet young adults' need, the upcoming performance should invite some big names including super stars from Hongkong and Taiwan. We are all eagerly anticipating this unforgettable evening show.
【点评】
本次四级考试作文总体上来说并不是很难。但表现出两个出人意料：一是体裁，二是题材。
对于体裁来说，本次四级作文属于正反对比论证类的文体。比较出人意料，又回到了老的考查模式。很多学生把考前死背的作文模板派上了用场。但是这只能得到最基本的分数。虽然模板对于考查学生的语言表达并不益处，但还能测试出考生的语言基本功。从四级考试写作的测试目的来看，还是注重考查学生对基本语法、基本词汇运用能力的掌握情况。所以除了模板之外，考生还要在基本表达上狠下功夫，只有在平时多操练，在考场上才游刃有余。除此之外，学生还要在作文中多采用闪光点，这样就会使作文在基本分数上有所提升，有所突破。 对于题材，本次四级作文的话题是关于人们对于春节晚会的不同看法，属于社会生活类话题，一反常态，没有再次考查校园类话题。但是对于当代大学生来说，与大学生有关的社会话题也是需要关注的，这也说明考试方向的变化：校园类话题与社会热点话题同等重要,这一点对于未来考四级的学生的作文备考的方向有的指导意义。 1

1、近十年来某城市越来越多人选择出去旅游
2、出现这种现象的原因
3、这种现象可能产生的影响
表格：
1995 2000 2005
1万人 近4万 12万以上
【范文一】
From the table, we can see that in the past 10 years, the number of people in a given city who have gone traveling abroad has increased considerably. Especially in the recent 5 years, the figure has been more than tripled, surging from 40,000 to 120,000.
There are several reasons for the change. Firstly, with the development of economy, more and more people become better off. And their ability to finance their trip abroad is growing. Secondly, tourism has greatly developed over the decade. Travel agencies offer not only domestic packages but also travel specials abroad. In addition, individuals today are expected and encouraged to go outside to widen their horizon and to face the real world of globalization. In this way they hope to keep themselves informed of what is going on around the world.
From the changes reflected in the table, we can predict that the number of individuals going out of the country will boost. This encouragingly and inevitably facilitates the cultural exchange between ours and the rest of the world and this trend will be irreversible.
【范文二】
Currently, people in growing numbers are seeking to make tours in other countries. As is vividly indicated in the above chart, the numbers of foreign-travelling people in X city has reached to more than 120,000 in the year of 3
2005, compared with about 12,000 in 1995 and less than 40,000 in 2000. From the chart, we can also predict that this trend is likely to continue in the following years.
The reasons for the increasing of traveling abroad are obvious as follows. Firstly, as the development of people’s life style and economy, they are rich enough to afford to go travel abroad. Secondly, the world has become a small village as the information age and internet improve. Thirdly, more and more people are interested in the cultue of other countries, therefore they are eager to visit them in their eyed.
As we can see from the chart, this trend mentioned above will bring lots of benefits for us. For one thing, traveling abroad will help connect our world closely and enhance the friendship between countries. For another, tourists can leran great amount of experiences and cultures, which will be unquestionably beneficial for our countries development

［参考作文］Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists?
【范文一】
One can always find visitors taking pictures and enjoying the scenery in university compus. During the May Day Holiday, National Day Holiday, summer and winter vacations, many University campuses become popular tourist sites. In my opinion, university campus should be open to tourists.
In fact, there are many royal gardens and parks, all of them obviously better than the scenery in the Universities. Why do you think people prefer visiting here with their children? That is because it is a dream goal for many Chinese parents and young ambitious students. Besides this, as more tourists come to visit universities, these universities can widen their influence as well and they can also make some profit from the tourism.
In a word, I think the university compus should be open to the tourists

【范文二】
In university compus, especially in some famous ones, such as Peking University and Qinghua University, tourists are always seen looking around everywhere. Although most of them visit with hope and repect, I think university compus should not be open to tourists.
First, tourists' visit will disturb the normal teaching. They always get into teaching buildings, libraries and so on. They will make noise and throw rubbish everywhere. Second, some tourists trample grass to take photos, and sculpture on trees to leave words. These will affect the environment of the compus badly.
The university is a holy place for study, not for tourism. So It should not be open.

Dear Mr. Smith,
Thank you very much for giving me so much time for last week's interview. I was very exciting you could provide the position for me as I'm a student who just graduate from college now.
But I must say sorry for your believing in me. I could not be able to take this job. Because I have passed the examination to graduate school.
